Bedeutung
High speed wind.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Baku is known as the 'City of Winds'. The wind is so central to life that there are two main types: Khazri (cold north wind) and Gilavar (warm south wind). Traditional houses in the Absheron region were often built with specific orientations to protect against the 'güclü külək'. For Caspian sailors, 'güclü külək' is a signal to return to port immediately, as the sea can become extremely violent very quickly. In Azerbaijani folklore, the wind is sometimes seen as a messenger or a force that can reveal secrets by blowing away veils or covers.
The Baku Rule
If you are in Baku, always check the wind speed before choosing your outfit. A 'güclü külək' can make 20°C feel like 10°C.
Umbrella Danger
Never use an umbrella in a 'güclü külək' in Azerbaijan. It is the quickest way to lose an umbrella and look like a tourist.
